Hey Lea,
Thanks for your response.

My heart goes out to the women, who experience this after a full pregnancy and
birth.
Despite the problems I've had since the D&C, I am still so grateful that I
didn't have to
endure the birthing process. My husband and I thought that if there was any
small mercy,
that was it. Just as we were getting used to the idea of being pregnant, it
was all over and
sometimes, its hard to believe that it actually happened.

Like yourself, its been recommended that next time, we get pregnant (all going
well), we
use folate. Ironically, all my tests showed that all my levels were what they
should be so
that helped relieve some of the anxiety around whether I had taken enough iron,
or
calcium etc. That was my first thought though – that I hadn't. I guess its
all part of trying
to find a reason why it happened?

Anyway, its so nice (and inspiring) to hear your story has a happy ending and
that Arden is
such a healthy and perfect baby!!! It gave me hope and I think its awesome
that he's
doing so well.

Congratulations and welcome to the world little Arden!

Looking forward to updates...
